Alcon recalls Acrysof IQ IOLs with incorrect diopter settings that may cause vision issues. Affected models include 20.5 D SP ACRYLIC FOLDABLE LENS with UltraSert delivery system. Contact Alcon for details.
Incorrect IOL diopter
Alcon is recalling certain Acryso: IQ IOL lenses due to an incorrect diopter setting. This could lead to vision problems if the lens is implanted. Affected products have specific model numbers and lot codes.
The IOL (intraocular lens) has an incorrect diopter setting, which means it may not focus light properly on the retina. This could cause vision problems but does not pose a direct risk of injury.
People who have received the Acrysof IQ IOL with the incorrect diopter setting, particularly those who have had the lens implanted. The risk is low as the issue is related to the lens design rather than a safety hazard.
